Redundency

[Poppydee]

i have no contract of employment, what is my redundency entitlement, if i am to take voluntary redundency?

[factor-fiction]

I'm not sure what you mean when you say you have no contract. How long have you been working for your employer? I would have thought there was some form of contract in place even if you haven't signed one.

The amount of redundancy pay depends on whether statutory terms apply or whether your employer has enhanced terms.

If statutory terms apply then it depends on age and length of service. Can you give us this info? Ta

You do have a contract - it came in to effect on the day you started working for them.

What you don't have is written statement of terms although you are legally entitled to one.

Where you don't have the terms in writing you have the same statutory rights as anybody else.

I assume you have been working for more than 2 years?

It isn't sensible to volunteer for redundancy for the minimum entitlement - the statutory redundancy amounts are triflingly small.
We need to know your age and how many years continuous service you have to tell you what the statutory amounts are.
The point of thugulike's question is that you are not entitled to redundancy until you have completed 2 years' service.
